Force is the foundation of all athletic movement. Force is the result of mass and acceleration, expressed mathematically as: F=ma, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration

Force production is a key component of athletics, however force production alone is not enough to sustain dynamic movement. For example, in dynamic movement force is never applied instantaneously; rather force it is applied over a period of time (Impulse). Impulse is expressed as a mathematical formula: I = F△t, whereas I is impulse and △t is the change in time

When looking at force-time curve on a force plate, impulse is graphically represented as the area under the force-time curve. In most sports, the ability to increase one’s impulse will provide the athlete with a greater potential to excel

In the Hawkin Cloud, we calculate many different impulse metrics from each phase. These metrics are then further broke down into left-right impulse differences, impulse ratios, and impulse relative to bodyweight
